I fish out of nautic star 2110 bay boat. has hydraulic steering. just recently there has been a lot of slack in the steering and when it does catch its real jerky. it has a silver star HC5345 steering cyclinder. anybody got any idea as to what might be going on.
beats me best guess is loose nut behind the steering wheel.
I already had that checked. and there was no fixing it, been that way to long
You got air in the lines. Most likely from a leaking cylinder. You can buy a gland and seal kit and then refill the system. Bleeding is a two man job and a pain in the rear.
well WB looks like you spoton. been reading and researching and that's what I came up with and everybody says its definetly 2 man job. thanks for info.
Deroc, you just swelled the boys head up so bad that if he's outside he better find some shade cause that big ugly head ain't getting through no door to get out of the heat!!
I did the seal and bleed thing. Took 3 people on mine. (one with experience, cause me and the other was not even close to doing it right.) Good luck. That is exactly how mine felt before the fix.
D that sounds like my situation. I aint got a clue. going to check several places and see what they would charge to do it before I make a mess of it.
well that's hat the problem was. seal gone on cylinder and air lines. couldn't fix it with my broken leg so had it done. now good to go
How's that leg doing?
I have a purge kit that will refill and bleed the system in 5 minutes with one guy.
well now you tell me. but thanks anyway. and as far as the leg, its getting better everyday but the crutches are a pain. how much is the kit and how does it repair the leaking seal.
You would think your friends know what business you're in. Uhh, Big River MARINE!!! [emoji4]Quote:
